As the new media gets facts to the public, the disgust with the MSM grows.

I’m not sure Zimmerman has a chance with a FL jury. Maybe a WY or ID jury (and that’s doubtful too), but not FL.

Zimmerman’s “war chest” shrunk by $100,000 because of the judge’s punitive bail

“As the new media gets facts to the public”

Indeed, if it weren’t for internet news sources and legions of investigative bloggers, the facts of the situation would never have been known.

The MSM are such liars. For example, from the article:

“To Trayvon supporters, THE FACT that a half-white, half-Hispanic man went free after profiling Trayvon, an innocent black boy, as a criminal, chasing after him, and then shooting the unarmed boy reeked of racial inequality and even institutional racism.”

Good Lord. . .”FACT?!”

The more that the entire story is laid out, and the various character flaws in the kid are laid out....you end up flipping the channel off. Zimmerman might have done something stupid in this thing...but this kid isn’t exactly as innocent as the media portrays him. You are left with Zimmerman acting like ninety-five percent of us.

Again the MSM are never interested in the number of crimes PREVENTED by armed citizens.

GZ prevented a MURDER through JUSTIFIED HOMICIDE with the proper application of the 2nd Amendment....

...which makes the Left furious!

Is it time to dump Mark O’Mara???

http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2012/07/08/the-hidden-agenda-exposed-mark-omara-on-bet-air-date-april-20th-730pm-videos/

The next thing on the agenda is preparation for a Stand Your Ground Hearing — but Mark O’Mara hates the SYG statute with a passion.

How much of the PayPal and passport fiasco was his fault??? He was the one who called SZ to the witness stand. Did he prepare her for the prosecution’s questions like a good attorney should have???

I heard him on television the other night whining that the state prosecutor hasn’t sent him a plea offer yet. What? He’s already throwing in the towel.

I have never in my life heard an attorney do more to bash his own client and his own client’s credibility in front of the media than Mark O’Mara.

He’s pathetic and he needs to go — NOW.

“equal protection rights by profiling him” Those rights extend to the government, not to individuals acting on their own. He was a volunteer, not a police official or government lacky.

"Zimmerman, ....., shot Martin, an unarmed 17-year-old, after to end a scuffle fight with the drug addled, cage match trained, aggressive thug. "

Fixed.

A fairy tale.

But in making an appeal for more funds, Mr. O’Mara also suggested on Friday that many Americans have given because they feel “this case is an affront to their constitutional rights,” namely the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms.

Bull$#*!

What kind of idiot defense attorney would make such a pejorative statement like that.

They are giving because they see an innocent man being railroaded by race hustlers and devious investigators, lawyers, prosecutors, judges and journalists manipulating the system to their own benefit -- and that includes you, Mr O'Mara.

While the Zimmerman/Martin ‘white’ on black killing is covered 24/7 on the MSM with an outpouring of rage and charges of a racial hate crime, where is the concern- where is the rage about the home invasion, torture, beating, rape and murder of the elderly white couple by a gang of feral blacks in Tulsa, Oklahoma just a months ago?

The 90 year old war veteran husband was beaten and his jaw broken. He was shot in the face numerous times with a BB gun and sent to the hospital in critical condition.

The 85 year old partially blind wife was RAPED and then BEATEN TO DEATH.

Can you just imagine the pain, the humiliation, the horror that dear old lady experienced being gang raped by that pack of feral animals?

(the autopsy states she was raped. Don’t think all of these animals didn’t all participate)

And can you imagine the pain, the horror of that dear old husband having to witness this?

Mr. Strait died from his injuries shortly after his wife.

There’s a lot more involved here than a home invasion and robbery.

WHERE ARE THE CHARGES OF A RACIAL HATE CRIME??

90 year old husband’s jaw broken and shot in face with a BB gun numerous times?

85 wife year old semi blind wife RAPED and BEATEN to death??

Why does it take a foreign press to enlighten America as to this henious crime?

WHERE IS THE NATIONAL OUTRAGE?

Have they caught the rest of the gang of feral blacks who raped, tortured and murdered this elderly woman? Are they even looking? Not a word about it in the media.

There is nothing more disgusting to most Americans than seeing the media and the political and legal system conspire against them in favor of the criminal class in order to keep their own power and privileges.

That's why Zimmerman receives the donations he does: its a big "f--- you" to our corrupt media, politicians and judges.

I like to see Zimmerman get off, not because he was carrying a gun and had to use it, but so he can sue all the MSM that created this show with their bias and provocative reporting.

“This whole thing rests on who threw the first punch.”

**********

Are people totally without common sense nowadays? Nobody with a hidden gun would initiate a fist fight and thereby risk getting put into a position where he could not use his gun.

Kind of makes me hope that a criminal type druggie makes Lester and his family a target and then let’s see him try and proclaim his attacker an innocent.

the entire CSMonitor item is a classic of liberal FUDD
and distraction, especially the closing lines (which aren’t
especially relevant to the Zimmerman situation). Note that
the title is “the shifting *politics* of self-defense” not
the “Constitutionally recognized right of self-defense.”
